500ml to 440ml?

Edit: the 440 on the right, is the last of a can that I bought in a four pack. The 500 on the left, is one of three I bought as singles.

Packaged Guinness comes in 440 milliliters. Single cans of Guinness come in 500 mL.

Apparently, that’s how Guinness does it here in Canada.

And apparently, I lazily avoided any attempt to research or apply any level of critical thinking before posting.

    Purely curious myself, I asked GPT4 for you. This is the response:

    Here’s how the prices compare per liter:

    •	6x500ml at £7.99: £2.66 per liter
•	4x440ml at £4.50: £2.56 per liter
•	12x330ml at £15 (Buy One Get One Free): £1.89 per liter

    The 12 pack of 330ml stubbies (with the Buy One Get One Free offer) offers the best value at £1.89 per liter.
